2Part A: My Philosophy of teaching The purpose of developing my educational philosophy is to show the value andeffectiveness I wish to achieve as a teacher during the process of teaching in the classroom. Myteaching philosophy is distinct in nature. I believe in providing educationally appropriateinformation within a time limit that is appropriate for the student. Educational principles are builton the belief that education should be community oriented that is it should meet the needs of thecommunity members [ CITATION Ana09 \l 1033 \m Atk16]. The educational principles I provide tomy students should be effective in helping them to be better members of the society and not onlygood scholars at the end of the day. Education should also be formatted to be learner oriented and meet the needs of thelearner[ CITATION Bea09 \l 1033 \m Bel10]. I believe that when learners get the opportunity toexperiences and show their ideas in a learning environment, they will be better able to deal withchallenges that they face on day to day basis. Confidence can only be developed through learnerparticipation in the learning environment. Being a good listener is paramount to the success ofmy students[ CITATION Bin12 \l 1033 \m Cah18]. Showing my students that they are of value byfostering communication in the classroom strengthens our relationship.The teachers’ and learners’ relationship is also significant for educational development.However, boundaries should be set in teacher and learner relationships[ CITATION Cah18 \l 1033 \m DeV16 \m Ded10]. Teachers and learners should respect their boundaries to prevent interruptionin the provision of knowledge. This interruption can come into play when teachers and learnersengage in romantic relationships. I do not believe in having romantic relationships with students.I believe in maintaining stringent and appropriate lines in terms of relationships with studentsalthough I enjoy being social with my students.

3 Education should also address both the cognitive, psychomotor and the effectivedomains of learning[CITATION Gay00 \m Goo98 \l 1033 ]. For the cognitive part, education shouldbe formatted to address the mental skills of the learners- that are their knowledge. Education,according to me, should also be formatted to address the effective domain of learning. Throughthe effective domain, education should be formatted to aid the student to grow both in feelingsand emotions[ CITATION Gre03 \l 1033 ]. In this regard, education should enable the student todevelop the right skills and attitudes that will be relevant for personal development in bothactivities of daily living and for personal development. I strive to ensure the student is viewed asa whole entity and not only a part of a whole. Under the cognitive domain, education should enable the leaner to develop bothphysically and intellectually[ CITATION Gre03 \l 1033 ]. The intellectual development of thelearners is hallmarked on the fact that the learners should be exposed to sufficient number ofexperiences that support their development. Learning should be aimed at providing the studentwith knowledge that is up to date and accurate [ CITATION Nat13 \l 1033 ]. Information provided tolearners should be shaped to be appropriate not only for the class but also for their developmentout of the class, in the environment that they are in. I do not believe in providing out of date andirrelevant information to students but rather information that is up to date and highly relevant tothe students in question.Information that is provided for to students should also be easily comprehensible by thestudents in question[ CITATION Gre03 \l 1033 \m DeV16]. The understanding of meanings ofconcepts is highly significant if the leaner or learners are to succeed in the job market andbeyond. I strive to provide information that is easy to understand and relevant to the learners interms of the level of development and degree of information provided. Before I give complex
